Eglu Go UP - Portable Chicken Coop
The Eglu Go UP is the ultimate portable hen house. Exceptionally easy to clean with slide out roosting bars, dropping tray and waterproof, wipe-clean surfaces.
Raised Chicken Coop Perfect for a Flock of Up to 4 Hens
The Eglu Go UP is the perfect solution if you want a small flock of chickens in your garden. This portable chicken house is suitable for up to 4 small to medium sized chickens, such as Pekin bantams and Gingernut Rangers, or 2-3 larger breeds, like Orpingtons.
The Eglu Go UP has all the benefits of the Eglu Go, but at a convenient, raised height. Your hens will love roosting up off the ground and laying in the private nest area, while you will appreciate not having to bend down to collect eggs or clean the coop, making chicken keeping even more of a delight!
Super Quick and Easy to Clean in Just a Few Minutes
Cleaning your Eglu Go UP mobile chicken house is quick and easy, and it will only take you a few minutes a week to keep it in great condition. The removable plastic roosting bars are carefully designed to allow all the droppings to fall through onto the tray underneath. This can then be removed and emptied straight into the compost bin (chicken droppings make brilliant fertilizer for your plants).
All the smooth surfaces are made from a high density waterproof polymer which you can pressure wash to get your chickens’ coop spotlessly clean in less than 5 minutes.
The Eglu Go UP is designed for zero maintenance. Unlike wooden housing, you will never need to paint or re-roof your Eglu - saving you time and money.

Take a look at our FAQs here.Spacious, Heavy Duty Steel Run Keeps Hens Safe
The chicken run for the Eglu Go UP is made from strong steel weld mesh that will resist the most persistent of predators, and the dark green coating will blend into your garden beautifully. A secure run gives you peace of mind that your chickens are safe while you’re not at home or spending time in the garden with them. Eglu runs have been rigorously tried and tested for over 15 years. Click play on the image to see the difference between an Eglu run and standard chicken wire.
The unique anti-tunnel skirt lays flat on the ground to prevent animals from digging in. This is a unique feature of Omlet’s chicken runs and is incredibly successful in deterring foxes and other predators. You can position the Eglu hen house and run on grass, wood chippings or soil, and if the area is uneven you can secure the anti-tunnel skirt to the ground with Omlet’s Screw Pegs.
Easy to Move Around Your Garden With Optional Wheels
The Eglu Go UP is available with optional wheels, which make moving the chicken coop to a new spot in your garden super easy, even for one person. Simply press the foot pedal and the raised chicken house will gently rise so you can effortlessly wheel it to a fresh area of grass.
The wheels can be used with the Eglu Go UP with or without the run, they attach to the frame of the house. If you’ve got a longer run, or a particularly uneven lawn, the Eglu Run Handles will make moving the coop even easier.

One Hand to Open and Lock the Front Door
Letting your chickens out in the morning and securing the Eglu Go UP chicken house at night couldn’t be simpler. By lifting and turning the handle on top of the coop you open and close the door, locking and unlocking in one intuitive movement. No fiddly catches and bolts that don’t line up - it’s been designed to work even with gloves on which you’ll really appreciate in winter! Once the door is closed and locked in position, no chicken can escape and no predator can get in.
Comfortable Nest Box for Your Hens to Lay Delicious Eggs
One of the best things about being a chicken keeper is the fresh eggs your hens will provide you with every day; without a doubt the best eggs you will ever taste! Your hens will sleep snugly on the perfectly rounded roosting bars and they’ll love the integrated nesting box in the Eglu Go UP. You can fill the nest with bedding and look forward every morning to collecting eggs by opening the large door at the back.
Great in All Weathers, Keeps Hens Warm in Winter and Cool in Summer
All Eglus feature twin wall insulation to ensure they stay warm in winter, and cool in summer.
Eglu coops are used by chicken keepers all over the world from Australia to Canada and everywhere in between. Why? Because they provide protection from all types of weather extremes.
The Eglu Go UP keeps your hens warm in winter. It has a unique twin-wall insulation system that works in a similar way to double glazing in your house, by trapping a pocket of air between two surfaces. This is an extremely effective way of insulating the coop, making sure the body heat from your chickens has nowhere to go!
In summer the same insulation will keep your chickens cool, and the draught-free ventilation system has been designed to keep fresh air circulating in the coop at all times, without air blowing directly over the roosting and nesting area.
Extendable Run and Easy to Connect to a Large Walk in Run
Easily extend your Eglu Go UP run, or attach to a larger Walk in Chicken Run for the ultimate hen playground.
You can extend the fox resistant run at any time with run extension packs in approximately 1m long sections, made of the same strong steel weld mesh as the Eglu run. You can use the extra space to add fun treat dispensing toys, like the Peck Toy or Caddi Treat Holder.
Another popular option for providing your hens with secure space to exercise is to connect your coop to a Walk In Chicken Run. These extremely popular runs offer the benefit of added height so you can go into the run and hang out with your hens. It’s a great solution if you are not able to let your chickens free range in the garden during the day. The dark green mesh will also blend in beautifully, so that the chickens’ home can be a natural part of the garden. You can even accessorise your run with a traditional wooden perch, or modern Chicken Swing!
Stable-Style Run Doors Open Independently for Easy Access
The Eglu Go UP has a convenient, and practical stable-style door at the end of the run. The top and bottom open independently of each other, and both have run pins to secure them in an open or closed position. Open both doors when you want to allow your chickens out in the garden or to get full access to the run, or keep the bottom door closed if you want to do a quick feeder and drinker refill without your hens escaping.
Ergonomic Ladder Grips Help Smaller and Rescued Chickens
The new and improved ladder design has larger, non-slip rungs that your chickens will find comfortable to grip in all seasons. The durable, all-weather grips simply clip on to the rungs of the Eglu Go UP ladder to provide a large non-slip surface. The grips are especially useful for older, less agile chickens, or for young hens who are perhaps using the ladder for the first time, but will be appreciated by chickens of all ages. The Eglu Ladder Grips have been a standard feature of the Eglu Go UP chicken coop since October 2019 and are fully compatible with all Eglu Go UP coops bought before this date.
Easy to Assemble
The Eglu Go UP comes in convenient boxes that are shipped with a courier service. A clear large format step-by-step instruction manual is included to help you build your new chicken coop quickly with one or two people. There’s also a brilliant real time “How to Build” video which you can watch here to see each assembly step being performed.
All you need to assemble the Go UP house and frame is a screwdriver, and the run is put together using Omlet's patented run clips.
"I love this Eglu Go Up. It’s so easy to clean, 5 minutes each day and it’s done. Absolutely brilliant and was easy to put together too." - Carolanne

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Autodoor be fitted to the Go UP?
The Omlet Automatic Chicken Coop Door can be fitted to the Eglu run, however, it cannot be attached to the Eglu Go UP house. We are always developing new products and have shared the interest for a Go UP Autodoor with our design team.
What size run should I get?
The size of run you need depends on how many chickens you have, what chickens you have (breed/size/personality), and how much they are allowed to roam free outside the run. Always aim to give your chickens as much space as you can, either by letting them free range in the garden or backyard or by getting a bigger Walk in run attached to the run of your coop. If you're not able to extend further, try moving the coop and run as often as possible or changing the soil or wood chips regularly. If you're having difficulty deciding what run size to get, feel free to contact our customer service team who will be happy to help!
How far can I extend the run?
The run can technically be extended however long you want with the 1m chicken run extensions. However, when extending over 3 meters, we would recommend taking extra precautions to ensure stability and security. This might include using screw pegs to secure the run, and adding perches to stabilise the mesh. Instead of extending further, you might want to consider connecting the coop to a Walk in Chicken Run.
Does the Eglu Go UP have perches?
While the Eglu Go UP doesn’t have traditional wooden perches, has specially designed roosting bars with a structured surface and rounded corners where the chickens will sleep comfortably at night.
Roosting bars allow the chickens to grip onto something while they sleep, which makes them feel safe and comfortable. As they climb up into the Go UP to roost, they also get the reinforced feeling of being off the ground. Although they don’t look like traditional wooden perches, roosting bars are great for larger breeds who find it tricky to jump up to a raised perch, or recently rescued hens who don’t have the strength to flap, and the shape of the bars makes sure most of the droppings fall straight onto the slide out, easy clean tray underneath.
What is the return policy and warranty for the Eglu Chicken Coops?
If for any reason you're not happy with your purchase you can return it to us for a full refund within 180 days. You will need to dismantle and pack up the coop, so it's a good idea to keep the original boxes. For your peace of mind Omlet also gives you a 2 year warranty, so please contact us if anything goes wrong and we'll do our best to fix it straight away. Please note the warranty does not cover natural weather, animal and pest damage.
Is the Eglu predator proof?
While the strong materials and thought out design makes it extremely hard for predators to get to your pets, no coop is 100% predator proof. Check the coop and run regularly to make sure all features are working as intended, including latches, doors and run clips.
If you live in an area with lots of predators, you might want to consider adding additional protection to the run. Keep on top of egg collecting and control rodents to minimise the risk of attracting snakes and lizards. If you've seen possums or other particularly dexterous animals around your yard, it's also a good idea to find a way to secure doors and latches with extra locks to stop them getting to your flock.
Do chickens find it hard to climb the ladder?
Although it might take chickens a few days to get the hang of the ladder, the new and improved ladder grips make sure all chickens will soon have no trouble walking up and down it. If your chickens are having difficulties, or show no interest in using the ladder, place treats on the rungs to encourage them up into the coop.
The durable all weather grips simply clip on to the rungs of the Eglu Go UP ladder to provide a large non-slip surface. The grips are especially useful for older, less agile chickens or for young hens who are perhaps using the ladder for the first time. The Eglu Ladder Grips have been a standard feature of the Eglu Go UP portable hen house since October 2019 and are fully compatible with all Eglu Go UP coops bought before this date. New and improved ladder grips have been available since March 2021.
Can I keep my run outside all year round?
The metal chicken runs are designed to be used outdoors for years to come. However, we recommend that you check the run regularly for signs of corrosion, especially if you live somewhere with extreme weather conditions or close to the sea. Corrosion will occur if the coating has been scratched or scraped for example. If you do see some, remove any loose rust and touch up with a weather resistant paint. If you have covers on your run and experience heavy snowfall it's advised you clear the snow off the roof to avoid the panels being damaged from the weight.
Do I need the handles to move my Go UP?
No, the Eglu Go UP is a fully mobile hen coop with wheels, without the handles. However, if you have a run that is longer than 3 metres, or if you intend to move it by yourself most of the time, the handles will make it noticeably easier.
Do I need an extreme temperature blanket for my Eglu Go UP?
Thanks to the twin wall insulation system, the Eglu Go UP will keep your chickens nice and warm in winter without any additional covers. The Extreme Weather Protection does, however, offer extra protection and will keep the insulated chicken coop warmer for longer, so if you live somewhere very cold it’s a great addition to your setup.
Can I place my Eglu Go UP on uneven ground?
Yes, that won’t be a problem. If you want to keep your chicken coop on a slope or in a particularly bumpy area of your garden, we would recommend fastening the hen house and run with the Omlet Screw Pegs. These are super easy to just twist into the lawn, thus removing any gaps under the skirt where chickens could possibly escape or predators could get in.
Is the Eglu Go UP suitable for chicks?
The Eglu Go UP house is suitable for chicks over the age of 12 weeks. We recommend you remove the roosting bars from inside the coop until the chicks are big enough to perch and walk across the bars safely. The Eglu run is not suitable for chicks under the age of 12 weeks without supervision due to risk of escape and predators. Chicks may struggle with the ladder to begin with while they are small, so you may wish to lift them in and out of the coop yourself, or convert the ladder to a ramp. You should use plenty of bedding in the coop to keep the chicks warm, and change the bedding every few days.
How long will it take me to build the Eglu Go UP?
The house will take a couple of hours to assemble, and the run an additional hour or so, depending on which size run you have chosen. Your Eglu Go UP comes with a comprehensive instruction manual that takes you through the assembly process, and you can also watch this step-by-step How to Build video.
Can I use the Go UP for my cats/rabbits?
We have not tested the Go UP with cats or rabbits so cannot recommend how safe it will be for these pets. Certain features, such as the ladder for rabbits, won't be suitable.
Do I need to add hay on the roosting bars or droppings tray?
You don't need to add hay to the roosting bars or droppings tray as they are super easy to wash clean without. However, you should place bedding in the nest box.
How warm is it inside the Go UP in winter?
The Eglu Go UP has twin wall insulaton which works in a similar way to a flask. The Go UP retains the heat produced by your chickens to keep them warm in winter. How warm it will be inside, depends on how many chickens you have in the coop, and whether or not you have left the door open.
What is the Wheel Arm Track Guard?
The Wheel Arm Track Guard fits in the space where the wheel arm moves across to lock when you lift the coop to move it. The wheel arm goes through the comb-like guard, but it prevents any overly curious chickens to put their head through this space. The Wheel Arm Track Guard is included in all Eglu Cube and Eglu Go UP run boxes as standard from July 2021, and if you have an older coop you can buy it here.
